Angie does it again. This book pays respect too the Oriental Express just in a paranormal way. Verity and Ellis can't catch a break, not from family, ghost or murder. This is a fast paced ride that will have hanging onto your sits because the Sugarland Land Express is ready to leave the station, with the living the dead and murderer or two. I appreciated the closer between two of the main characters and the ghost murder mystery was woven in beautifully with murder that took place in present.

Verity's at it again! This time while she's supposed to be on vacation. You know how it goes, though. When a lady can see ghosts, she gets drawn into some pretty wacky scenarios.

Plus, people keep trying to kill her. But hey! That happens to the best of us, right?

I'm going to take a second here to point out that Verity might be somewhat cursed (for lack of a better word) by Frankie's ghost and her ability to interact with the spirit world, but poor Ellis has to put up with his spoiled younger brother CONSTANTLY trying to get back together with his woman. While Ellis's mother is (somewhat) getting better when it comes to his and Verity's relationship, Beau is just the world's biggest jerkface. The guy seriously needs to find a hobby because his obsession with getting Verity back is NOT COOL, MAN. NOT COOL AT ALL.

The mystery of what happened on the train all those years ago is intriguing. The parallel mystery in the present is just as exciting. Death! Murder! Mayhem! And so many secrets. Everyone has a few, right? And Verity and Ellis have to ferret them out before anyone else ends up dead.

I like this series. It makes me grin and I have the biggest soft spot for how quick Ellis is to trust Verity and the crazy things she ends up in the middle of.

A big thank you to NetGalley for the ARC. I am voluntarily reviewing this book. I rate this book at 3.75. I have read and enjoyed Angie Fox before. I have not read any of this series. I do not feel it reads well as a stand alone. There is to much missing information, it is a bit confusing. I finished the book and the story is cute. It is an easy quick read.
